Best Boost Controller

[two_evil]

Hi all,

It is pretty simple really i have a r32 gtr with 2xhks 3037 and i was wondering what is the best boost controller to use.

Currently running 24psi for street and i don't know what i'll use for the drag yet but it has to hold alot of pressure

Recommendations and comments please guys

depends on your base gate pressure but BLITZ dual solenoid, Greddy profec-b are a good start, im not a fan of the HKS controllers though.

base gate pressure is 1 bar

you don't like the HKS EVS-S???

You mean the EVC-5.

no i mean s

HKS - EVC-S

The new HKS Type S EVC boost controller features their new slim black face and white LCD display for an attractive display.

Ah ok my bad, forgot about the new EVC-S. You just wrote EVS-S, so i thought you mucked up the last two letters. All good.

base gate pressure is 1 bar

So get heavier springs? 10psi is a lot to be bleeding off etc.

I'd be surprised if you are not seeing a bit of gate creep with that.

the reason i want to change to a boost controller is that i am currently running boost control through my haltech and the control dial is just sheeet to set. so i want to know what controller people recommend keeping mind that i two waste gates. the boost was set to 1.7 but when i was working on the car i found a hole in a hot pipe from the rear turbo i have since fix this and now its over boosting to 1.9-2.0 so i have disconnect the haltech boost control and just using the wastegate springs for now to control boost

i'm a big fan of profec b II for good boost control, a lot of ebc's dont seam to give you the option of when to start pulsing the solenoid which is important for stopping gate creep. heavier springs closer to your target boost is always a good idea tho

You asked for the "best" boost control?

Motec M800.

i got a haltech platinum just as good as a motec in my opinion and not so expensive

personally i dont think the profec or blitz are up to the challenge of 2 x 3037 but i totally agree with STATUS, the HKS has no hope.. dont get me started on HKS

seeing as 2 x 3037 isnt exactly backyard hiflow material, dont go cheap on the controller. i believe turbosmart make an EBOOST 2 capable of 60psi? have seen one run an evo with its 15yo 8 psi actuator at 27psi flat to redline. thats saying something.

That's what every Haltech / Vipec / etc.. owner says until they see a Phil Laird tune.
